101 projects says the ring "should" just slid off after i removed the screw. so is there any trick when it donsen't just slide off? the ring moves back and forth a little but is clearly not just pulling off.

Are you talking about the main outer ring that is chrome on an older car or body color on a new? Either way there is 1 screw at the bottom. You may have to give it a bit of a bump at the bottom or on the side to loosten the ring but it should come right off. There may be dirt holding it in place. It should move up and away from the car when coming off.

older one screw and i tried all kinds of bumping and wiggling now i'm trying not to damage the paint.

If I remeber correctly the older chrome ring should come out at the bottom and there is a little lip at the top. Try putting something in the screw hole like a bent piece of coat hanger and then pull straight out.
